PLAYBOOK TEMPLATES
Grant Agreement
A Grant Agreement documents funding terms for projects or research initiatives. This playbook explores performance milestones, reporting requirements, and clawback conditions.
Change of Control & Assignment
Negotiation strategy
Ensure that any change of control or assignment does not adversely affect your business interests. Negotiate for the right to terminate the agreement if the new party is not suitable.
Seek flexibility in assigning the contract to affiliates or in the event of a corporate restructuring. Ensure that consent for assignment is not unreasonably withheld.
Essential elements
1
Change of Control Notice
Written notice within 30 days.
2
Assignment Consent
Prior written consent required.
3
Automatic Assignment
Assignment in corporate transactions.
Action framework
ACCEPT
Propose edits when the clause lacks clarity on notice periods or consent requirements.
EDIT
Reject if the clause allows assignment without any consent or notice.
ADD
Add language for automatic assignment in mergers or acquisitions.
PRO TIP
Always ensure that assignment clauses align with your strategic goals and risk management policies.
